Demon of Dream

9tgsylexovs

Demon of Dream is an unmarked quest centered around 3 ex-cultists of Vaermina, all trapped in their own minds after an attempt to get back at the Mistress of Dream. Encounter several unique enemies, including Vaermina's own minions: The Omen.

Whether it be to end their suffering, or to find valuable artifacts and spells, you decide to venture into their minds and defeat their worst nightmares.

Like TES 4's Oblivion Gates, and Dragonborn's Black Books, these explorable dreams are small, dungeon-like pockets of Oblivion. Each of the three dreams are designed to match their dreamer: Both their fears and desires are present within the dream, holding you hostage until you conquer them on behalf of the dreamer. You cannot leave the dream until it is resolved.

The quest begins with the acquisition of the Idol of Vaermina, within Cragwallow Slope. There, you will find a note next to the artifact, explaining how it works and where the dreamers can be found.

The dreams can be tackled in any order, but the one at Greenwall is designed to be the final of the three.

Recommended level: 15+
